The Sam Houston State men’s basketball team announced the signing of Episcopal guard Jamal Williams.

Williams, a 6-4 guard, will join the Bearkats next season.

“We are extremely excited about the signing of Jamal Williams,” said head coach Jason Hooten. “We felt from day one in the recruiting process with Jamal could be a freshman who could come in an play. Because of his ability to defend and handle the ball he can contribute right away.”
